I talk about it a lot, but it's because it's something I'm really interested in: local music. I used to see a lot of local bands when I lived in Michigan, but I had lived there for 10 years and I knew everybody. Well, now I'm new to town, so I really don't know the local music scene at all. Luckily I found out about something that can help me with that: Band Night at Dickie Doo BBQ.

The Roots N Blues N BBQ Festival is coming up in Sept. 20-22. It's going to be a huge event with lots of music and food down in Columbia at Stephens Lake Park. They're going to have all sorts of huge performances from names you know including The Black Crowes, Blues Traveler, Steve Earle, Mavis Staples, Johnny Winter, Bela Fleck, Samantha Fish and more.

I will always be a die-hard Detroit Lions fan. However, since I've moved only an hour away from Kansas City, I've decided to make the Chiefs my new adopted favorite team. I know they're not the best team in the league, but I really like everything about them so far. However, there's one thing I really am not a fan of when it comes to the Chiefs: Their "Pump Up" song.

There are many different types of creative minds in the world, and that's evident by all the talent we have in Sedalia and our surrounding area. We've got singers, writers, dancers, painters, musicians, dancers; just about everyone has a little creative streak in them. That will definitely be put on display with the first Queen of the Prairies Music Series.

This Monday (Sept. 9), Whiteman Air Force Base will welcome the USO tour, featuring the hard rock band Drowning Pool for a "B-2 Block Party." In conjunction to the concert there will be carnival rides, food, games and a mobile arcade from 5-9 p.m. The carnival rides and games will be available for unlimited use for only $5. The Drowning Pool concert is completely free to those with access to Whiteman.

Happy Humpday! We are halfway through the week and for most of us, looking forward to a three day weekend. Labor Day weekend is usually the last chance to get the family and friends together for some summer activities.

When news broke that Dickie Doo BBQ was closing its doors on April 6 after being open since 1974, the people of Sedalia mourned the lost of such a great venue for live music, great food and good times. After a bit of a hiatus and plenty of people begging Rick Hunt to bring the Doo back, he has decided to reopen the doors.
